Answer 3

1 kg flour = 17.50
so 4 would be 70.
1 kg of rice = 3 kg flour, so = 3 x 17.50
So 2 kg rice = 2 x 3 x 17.50
= 105.

Answer 4

With me more or less so far?

Answer 5

5 kg Apples = 12 kg rice
so it = 12 x 3 x 17.5
= 630
Now for 3 kgs of apples = 630 x 3/5
= 378
So 378 + 105 + 70 = R 553 intotal.
